== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/POLG_TBEVW POLG_TBEVW] Capsid protein C self-assembles to form an icosahedral capsid about 30 nm in diameter. The capsid encapsulates the genomic RNA (By similarity).  prM acts as a chaperone for envelope protein E during intracellular virion assembly by masking and inactivating envelope protein E fusion peptide. prM is matured in the last step of virion assembly, presumably to avoid catastrophic activation of the viral fusion peptide induced by the acidic pH of the trans-Golgi network. After cleavage by host furin, the pr peptide is released in the extracellular medium and small envelope protein M and envelope protein E homodimers are dissociated (By similarity).  Envelope protein E binding to host cell surface receptor is followed by virus internalization through clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Envelope protein E is subsequently involved in membrane fusion between virion and host late endosomes. Synthesized as a homodimer with prM which acts as a chaperone for envelope protein E. After cleavage of prM, envelope protein E dissociate from small envelope protein M and homodimerizes (By similarity).  Non-structural protein 1 is involved in virus replication and regulation of the innate immune response (By similarity).  Non-structural protein 2A may be involved viral RNA replication and capsid assembly (Potential).  Non-structural protein 2B is a required cofactor for the serine protease function of NS3 (By similarity).  Serine protease NS3 displays three enzymatic activities: serine protease, NTPase and RNA helicase. NS3 serine protease, in association with NS2B, performs its autocleavage and cleaves the polyprotein at dibasic sites in the cytoplasm: C-prM, NS2A-NS2B, NS2B-NS3, NS3-NS4A, NS4A-2K and NS4B-NS5. NS3 RNA helicase binds RNA and unwinds dsRNA in the 3' to 5' direction (By similarity).  Non-structural protein 4A induces host endoplasmic reticulum membrane rearrangements leading to the formation of virus-induced membranous vesicles hosting the dsRNA and polymerase, functioning as a replication complex. NS4A might also regulate the ATPase activity of the NS3 helicase (By similarity).  Peptide 2k functions as a signal peptide for NS4B and is required for the interferon antagonism activity of the latter (By similarity).  RNA-directed RNA polymerase NS5 replicates the viral (+) and (-) genome, and performs the capping of genomes in the cytoplasm. NS5 methylates viral RNA cap at guanine N-7 and ribose 2'-O positions. Besides its role in genome replication, also prevents the establishment of cellular antiviral state by blocking the interferon-alpha/beta (IFN-alpha/beta) signaling pathway. Inhibits host SCRIB and prevents activation of downstream JAK-STAT signaling pathway (By similarity).

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
We present structures of three immature tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) isolates. Our atomic models of the major viral components, the E and prM proteins, indicate that the pr domains of prM have a critical role in holding the heterohexameric prM3E3 spikes in a metastable conformation. Destabilization of the prM furin-sensitive loop at acidic pH facilitates its processing. The prM topology and domain assignment in TBEV is similar to the mosquito-borne Binjari virus, but is in contrast to other immature flavivirus models. These results support that prM cleavage, the collapse of E protein ectodomains onto the virion surface, the large movement of the membrane domains of both E and M, and the release of the pr fragment from the particle render the virus mature and infectious. Our work favors the collapse model of flavivirus maturation warranting further studies of immature flaviviruses to determine the sequence of events and mechanistic details driving flavivirus maturation.

The structure of immature tick-borne encephalitis virus supports the collapse model of flavivirus maturation.,Anastasina M, Fuzik T, Domanska A, Pulkkinen LIA, Smerdova L, Formanova PP, Strakova P, Novacek J, Ruzek D, Plevka P, Butcher SJ Sci Adv. 2024 Jul 5;10(27):eadl1888. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.adl1888.
